Going AFK?

So...who do I get to blame for my video card having random hissy fits?

[Basil Dreadflint]

OK. I got the lappy working (sort of) last night! Was able to log in around 10:30 for about 20 minutes. Still have to finish putting all the pieces back in the case and putting all the screws back to hold it all together.

I plan on being back ingame tonight!

Blame me. Everyone else does. Have you tried blowing/wiping off any dust that may be on the video card, particularly the heatsink and/or fans?

Yep...I'm thinking that it's just finally had enough. It probably doesn't help that I didn't start to clean it until I'd had the computer for about a year; the itty-bitty fan on the VC was sort of caked with dust... Oops. LoL

The curse may have struck again. My computer is down, (running an ancient slow dinosaur right now that would probably die if I tried to run POTCO). Thought it was just a burned out power supply, fixed that but it will not boot up to desktop. Currently being diagnosed as I type, will keep ya posted.
